is the hd write-caching disabled?

1) My CPU is an AMD Athlon, not K6, I wrote wrong.
2) I get this corruption at boot time: the system was correctly shut down
previously, so data loss isn't normal!
I don't know if HD write cache is enabled: I kept factory set up, so I think
it's not. I will look, but I don't think it could be related, because with
2.4.19 kernel and XFS patch 2002-09-27 all works well.
